solo: "FX are weaker than fnatic"

14-8-2010 23:40

We sat down with WeMade FOX star Geun Chul "solo" Kang after his team's semi-final win against fnatic and discussed his side's chances in the final.

WeMade FOX are through to the final in the King of The Game tournament at e-Stars Seoul after moving past fnatic 2-1 earlier today.

When asked about what had changed from the previous matches in which they had lost to fnatic, Kang said: "We felt kind of sure we could win this time, we did our best, and felt kind of lucky, and also great with this victory."

"We have been analysing their strategies for a long time, we were not doing our ordinary play, because they know the way we play. We had something special prepared."

WeMade FOX will now take on Frag eXecutors for the King of the Game trophy, a match they feel they can come out on top.

"FX are weaker than fnatic, if we have a good lunch we will probably win," he added. "If the score is 2-0 it is going to feel great, but if we win like today, not so much."

Go WMF!

hahaha yeah, but they are growing up with their game! i mean, they are just playing better and better every match (since groupstages), and last competitions they didnt showed us what they can really do! so i think its time for wmf!

2010-08-15 01:22

this time I do think wmf will win though :-)

2010-08-15 02:04

This is like a mindgame... Well... I really love this 2 teams, I was hoping that FX would return to win something, but then WMF also deserves it too... GL both

2010-08-15 01:36

maybe fx is weaker then fnatic but you WMF don't have all the time luck like you had today against them ;)

2010-08-15 01:37

why so serious ?

2010-08-15 01:38

I think FX gonna win !!

2010-08-15 01:42

FX ;))

2010-08-15 01:46

I bet on WMF they totally deserve this win>

2010-08-15 01:46

WemadeFOX are playing in their country if they don't win they better should stop CS :) (training 12hours per day, salary everything..)

2010-08-15 01:49

where is cross? o.O O.o

2010-08-15 01:52

I think WMF has the upper hand since they have had more time looking at opponents demos and thinking about counters

2010-08-15 01:57

homefield advantage ftw ^_____^. <3 asian CS they put on one hell of a show that no one else could have. (referring to the non-counterstrike elements of the event in the photographs)

He didn't say they were better than FX.THey just came off of a good victory against fnatic. they were due, to say it was all luck is giving WMF no credit. afterall it was best out of 3 not 1 match. and if HLTV.ORG held a post between who is better, Fnatic or FX, who would people pick? he didn't say anything that we don't agree on.. relax people!!

2010-08-15 03:28

"If the score is 2-0 it is going to feel great, but if we win like today, not so much." ok.. so 2-1 victory against one of the top teams would not be "so much great".. now thats just cocky..

2010-08-15 03:46

GO FX OWNED FOX !

2010-08-15 04:04

hah, WMF saved their best for main event. of course they are most likely to going to win FX. i bet odds are like 80/20 for WMF (thought i really hope that FX win rather). Fnatic is good with gux, but bit overrated at the moment after they had few beats against NaVi. This tournament have showed pretty clearly that fnatic isnt best at the moment (at least yet !). Some kids may say that saying that is trolling, but WMF didnt win with luck (for true fnatic fans: if u really watched that match, wmf clearly was better in two maps). Hope that Fnatic can raise their level now with GuX for sure. I believe everything isnt seen yet though they have played with GuX before. Only thing that truly is shame.. is that NEO isnt that what he used to be: own everyone in CS world

2010-08-15 14:38

Imo FX are not better than WMF, even though they beat them. WMF's style is based on good tactics train over and over again 'til everything is PERFECT. That's kinda logical that it worked against fnatic but FX have a different style, closer to what we can usually observe in a mixteam, they base their attacks & defense on what the ennemy is doing, so WMF's perfect timings were just not what could have made them win the match. good to see an itw from solo!
